I also made oatmeal porridge with soy milk.
I got tested two months after I began the regimen and my total cholesterol decreased from 249 to 208. Triglycerides reduced from 57 to 48. (My HDL went from 106 to 81; LDL, from 134 to 118).
This is amazing! I have always had elevated cholesterol but this is the lowest it has ever been. I am ever so grateful for Ted's protocol.

Influence of Soy Lecithin Administration on HypercholesterolemiaNote: Hypercholesterolemia; is a condition characterized by high levels of cholesterol in the blood. Cholesterol is a fatty substance that plays an essential role in cell membranes, but excessive amounts can accumulate in the arteries and increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Recent studies suggest that lecithin-rich diet can modify cholesterol homeostasis and hepatic lipoprotein metabolism. Considering the phytotherapeutic impact of lecithin, this work hypothesizes that lecithin administration in hypercholesterolemic patients may reduce cholesterol concentrations by increasing biliary secretion. Total cholesterol and LDL were evaluated after soy lecithin administration in hypercholesterolemic patients. One soy lecithin capsule (500 mg/RP-Sherer) was administrated daily. One-two months before the treatment beginning, blood samples were collected for total lipids and cholesterol fractions analysis. The results showed a reduction of 40.66% and 42.00% in total cholesterol and of 42.05% and 56.15% in LDL cholesterol after treatment for one and two months, respectively. A significant reduction in total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol concentrations was observed during the first month of treatment, suggesting that the administration of soy lecithin daily may be used as a supplemental treatment in hypercholesterolemia.
IMPRESSIVE!

I use the sunflower lecithin b/c it's supposedly less processed. Another adjunct to this is the 5 ingred heart tonic. Between the two, cholesterol should drop like a rock.Replied by Art from California on 12/27/2025
Hi Ruralady,The only problem is nobody knows whether the sunflower lecithin works as well as the soy lecithin.
In 2023 and 2024 I suggested to 2 friends to take the soy lecithin for their high cholesterol and it worked well for both of them to bring their cholesterol into the normal range. This year I suggested the soy lecithin to another friend and she chose to use sunflower lecithin and while it did lower her cholesterol it was not close to the amount that the other two friends got with soy lecithin and no where near what the soy lecithin study showed. It may just be an individual variance, but it was much less of a lowering effect in the third friend who used sunflower lecithin.

Ruralady, can you tell me what the 5 ingredient heart tonic is? ThanksReplied by Ruralady from Illinois on 12/28/2025
Very interesting Art and TY for that info. I choose the sunflower b/c I didn't want the soy. Ever since I found out about my BC gene I've tried to stay away from soy of any kind. Thank you so much!Replied by Ruralady from Illinois on 12/28/2025
EC has a search engine and you can use that b/c I make mine different. I don't cook mine down. Here's how I make mine.I C of ACV w/ mother
1 C of lemon juice
1 C of garlic juice
1 C of lemon juice
I C of ginger juice
1 C of water
1 C of honey
I blend a whole bud of garlic with the lemon juice which is about 3 fresh lemons and I blend the fresh ginger with the ACV. After they're blended I add the cup of water and blend more. After it's blended I add the honey and stir. Put in an airtight container and shake. I don't cook it down but keep it in the fridge and after meals have a TBS of it. You probably should do it according to the directions but I have chronic gastritis due to fibromyalgia so my stomach is more sensitive.
My husband caught a very bad cold over the Christmas holiday but I took this every 2 hrs and my cold was very mild, I thank this for it. Good luck and happy heart health!

Thank you Ruralady. Do you take it after every meal? Do you strain it? I think I will follow your recipe as I too have a sensitive stomach.Replied by Ruralady from Illinois on 12/28/2025
I try to take it after every meal, most days I only eat twice. It seems I wrote 1 C of lemon juice twice but you only need one cup which is about 3 large lemons. No I don't strain it, I like it as it is. I also use a higher quality honey I think I use acassia(sp). Best of luck to you.
